"Caltech Uncovers Chilling Truth about California's Supervolcano"

Researchers at Caltech have used advanced imaging techniques to investigate increased seismic activity in California's Long Valley Caldera, a dormant supervolcano. The high-resolution images reveal that the recent seismic activity is a result of fluids and gases being released as the area cools off and settles down, rather than a sign of an impending major eruption. The findings provide valuable insights into the underground environment of the caldera and demonstrate the potential of fiber optic cables for seismic measurements. The team plans to further explore the caldera's magma chamber using deeper imaging techniques.
